FWIW, I just upgraded to 2.69d and hit the same problem:
m4:configure.ac:40: Warning: excess arguments to builtin `m4_define' ignored
Line 40 is:
AC_INIT(GNU MP, GMP_VERSION, [gmp-b...@gmplib.org, see
https://gmplib.org/manual/Reporting-Bugs.html], gmp)

Thanks Zack. I can confirm that the patch fixes both of the failures
I've seen in AC_INIT.

Sorry about that. You can get it from
https://git.savannah.gnu.org/git/autoconf.git in the
'zack/ac-init-quoting' branch.

Man, M4 quotation is a headache and a half.
If you could both please test this patch? I would also appreciate a
second pair of eyes on it -- even with an expanded "AC_INIT with
unusual strings" test and careful inspection of all the places where
the AC_PACKAGE_* macros are used, I'm not 100% sure

No it's the # in the URL. Simply removing #libidn2 fixes this problem.
Presumably some quoting problem which just needs more precision []?

Similar in libidn2:
| m4:configure.ac:16: Warning: excess arguments to builtin `m4_define' ignored
16 AC_INIT([libidn2], [2.3.0], [help-lib...@gnu.org],,
17 [https://www.gnu.org/software/libidn/#libidn2])
Not handling the tarname being unset?

Hi,
Using autoconf 2.69c (upgrading from 2.69b meant we could drop two
patches, so that's good news!) to build gmp fails in a rather
mysterious way:
| autoreconf: export WARNINGS=cross
| autoreconf: Entering directory '.'
| autoreconf: configure.ac: not using Gettext
| autoreconf: running: acloca
